This was a great hotel, less than a 10 min walk from the central train station. Staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and quiet at night. I had a single room and the bathroom was very small - the toilet was almost literally inside the walk-in shower. I would stay here again.

The hotel was in a great location close to the train station. The staff was extremely polite, friendly, and helpful! The room was clean and the property was well-maintained. I was there during a heat wave, so I booked this place for the air conditioning. It wasn't very strong, but the staff brought in a fan which helped a lot. I would definitely stay here again.

Excellent location about 4 minutes walk from train station, several dining options, shopping and groceries. The hotel has a cute balcony spot on the roof terrace that was nice to gather at with family for early mornings and late night chats.there’s a free massage machine that was the icing on the cake. The room I was in could use a little TLC, the carpet and the walls had spots on the them. I would book again there!
